The TP-Link TL-WPA4220KIT worked as described. In a matter of minutes I had unpacked, configured and extended my home network. In my previous review, the TL-WA850RE gave a stronger signal boost but this kit at least lets me use my electrical circuit to get wireless to areas previously not possible...

We look at the WPA4220, a hybrid Powerline Wi-Fi extender from TP-LINK. Read on as Tyler tells us all about the kit and if it's worth buying or not.

Manufacturers tell me that wireless extenders are big sellers. I suppose it's no wonder, since most everyone wishes their Wi-Fi coverage were better than it is. Most extenders, however, have one major weakness-they reduce the bandwidth of the "extended" signal by half.

Notebook computers may have popularized wireless networking in homes and business, but in the past few years the surge in mobile computing on smartphones and tablets has turned that convenience into a requirement.

Just isn't consistant and constantly having to deal with trying to get it back working. At this point it isn't working at all, this has been the issue the whole time.

Compact

Doesn't hold; Having to constantly reset; Not Secure

I'm using this extender since a few months already and I won't change it for anything ! The configuration was really easy and since I've plugged it, I never had a single issue. I recommend !

- Easy to use / configure; - Great look; - Price

None I think of

I hooked this up in my office at home, which is in the opposite corner and downstairs from my modem/router location. I am now able to plug in via ethernet and I have a boost in my wifi strength. It worked fine when I first hooked it up, but after a couple of days, it stopped working.

I brought this home, followed the directions and had full speed (70mgb) using lan cable and dropped to 55mgb using wireless. This solved my problem of no wifi signal in parts of my house. House is built with cement block walls inside and out.

Does not work for me...total waste of money. It appears that for it to possibly work, it both units must be plugged in to the same electrical circuit....who has a circuit that has outlets on opposite sides of the house

Despite living in a house with near paper thin walls, the signal from my VM SuperHub2 just never got to the places where needed. Bought one of these sets (over 18 month ago) and within minutes the whole house was covered (well, everywhere needed).
